It all depends on the aspect of gambling. When it comes to casino gambling I play based on instincts because there are no strategies or systems that works, you just have to rely and instincts and hope to get lucky. Sports betting on the other hand is quite different, there are statistical methods used to approach this. instead of relying on instincts that might fail you just take your time to do a little research on your selections before making your final decision. This might not work for everyone though, there are those that have won from games played off from instincts and some have lost money due to this.

True, sports betting doesn’t rely on instinct because you really need to analyze some good teams and through deducting, you might result to betting on a good team. In general, instinct is our no. 1 bet teller especially in casinos, it’s true that everything is biased to the house, you might have a huge loss but sometimes instinct is there to save you from it. But I believe that your instinct is also based on your experiences in gambling so if you think that you’re hitting a good streak of wins, then luck + experience saved you.

Yes, just because sports betting is a type of skill-based game, or I mean there is something a gambler can do to increase their chances of winning, namely by applying their analysis and skills, but I don't think instinct is completely useless, because as is not uncommon, sometimes there is a team that is statistically much stronger but at the end of the game it turns out they lose for some reason such as making a blunder or other carelessness that makes them lose and if for example from the start you have an instinct that the much weaker team seems to win and then you choose to bet on them then you will definitely win, meaning instinct still helps in some situations.

But if the context of the discussion is a casino game then yes it is a type of game that depends entirely on luck where there is no other way than relying on instinct to bet, and honestly I also quite agree with your last statement that instinct is quite dependent on how much experience we have, because instinct is a feeling that arises because of the many events that you have experienced before.

I do, it's a feeling that I don't understand but I just go along with whatever comes to my mind and what is on my head. I've got plenty of experiences about my instincts of betting with quite high odds and this is just one of them that have happened recently.

So, that match with 5.50 odds isn't really going to be bet with most of the bettors because they're known for being the underdog and this usually happens in dota 2 matches. But I just felt that I have to bet on it since that team Heroic isn't just some teams out there but they have proven themselves that they can compete.

I had a similar win recently, I bet on two underdogs in one multibet and I won:

But if you ask me what I felt at the moment, I'd say I felt that I'm going to lose my bet. I'm a realist and I knew perfectly well that my chances were small. Yet I made that bet because I know unexpected things can happen and sometimes it's worth trying your luck with bets like that. My point is, my instinct was telling me nothing, but I decided to try my luck and I bet and I won.

I don`t think that instinct has something common with stress. When you`re stressed you make mistakes trying to win more or to return your loses. It is not about instinct but mostly about greed and mistakes.
But you`re right that it is near with gambling addiction and we have to pay attention to such signals.

I quite understand you, stress and desperation can impair one's decisions, but this doesn't stop you from acting based on your instinct. No matter how stressed you are, the brain is still fully functional and might be so tinily and unconsciously trigger your decisions based on instinct. We should endeavour to know what instinct is so that it will not cause a misconception. In a clearer term, instinct is a response to stimuli, so it always happens so long as your brain, cells and nerves are functioning and you consciously or unconsciously tasked them. This could even be hyperactive when you are stressed or in danger.

It depends on decisions. We can use instinct, but the same time we can just think so. And in reality it is our brain try to improve our positions and increase the bet or make additional bets. It is difficult to separate instinct from addiction in such situation. And, also, if you are losing, it means that instinct was mistaken in easier situation. It means that in stress situation it would work worse.
I understand what are you talking about but i think it is too easy to mix up instinct and addiction and it would be better to avoid believing instinct in such situations.

Yes, and for me it can be the trigger for gambling Addiction , and the Fact is that Things can be like that when a person can't Handle stress , in fact there are People who lose control and Become Addicted quickly, some believe they can handle stress and turn it into an Autoimmune disease , and others demonstrate stress with their own bodies through stress , so this is Something that we as Human Beings must overcome, or I recommend doing sports, running, lifting Weights , besides it is very Good for your health, but it is a way out.

There are sports events that I don't bet on because it's difficult to predict who may win. Instead, I skipped the match but participated in other matches where the odds showed a high chance of winning. I still will pick the ones I'd like to win but not bet and sometimes it turns out I was right not to bet on him.

Those who always parlay will develop the kind of instinct either adding the team or a fighter among the multibet. You don't wanna add someone who will just be the cause of the play to fail.

Sometimes even odds that has a high chance of winning ends up failing. This is what makes gambling very unpredictable, it's not always about the teams that the odds is in favour of. I have been playing sports betting for a long time and I can say that the underdogs that has the highest odds ends up winning the game.

You nailed it, for the sports betting that even requires much of our skills can still disappoint when luck is absent. For this, gambling has never been a certainty no matter how good your choices and chances of winning are, or how daring you are. What helps in improving the situation are our contingency plans in case we have it rough in an uncertain gambling world.

This calls for getting ready psychologically even as we work on the proper budget/management and keep wagering low to avoid avoidable issues.

Sometimes nature has its own way of doing things which we can not understand, it prevents occurrences and also makes things happens positively if only we are very much attentive to some signs it gives out before we taking actions. I believe we all here have our mind and our instinct tells us much more of occurrences before they take place to our consciousness. I will like to relate it to us that are into gambling and hear how our experience has been like so far.

I have had this experience on several occasion were I would be having this feelings to bet on a particular game which sometimes I ignore and the game turn out to be a perfect one and in some cases I bet and win and also when my instinct does not allow me to bet I just go ahead for fun and it turns out to be a bad one though which I just did for fun but at the entire end I have this feelings in me that I should not have gambled that game maybe I should have just watched for fun and do my things. It just happens sometimes that we do have that feelings and when it occurs, some are sensitive enough to listen to their instinct while some do not really understand why they feel that way and after playing, they have a bad time and call it a luck based thing. Do you really have such experience sometimes when you want to gamble? and if you do how was the turn of event when you listened to your instinct and also the other way round.

We need to be able to listen to your inner voice (it is also called intuition). I am absolutely sure that this subconscious tells you in such an implicit way how to act in a given situation.
And of course, this can concern bets in gambling or betting. I think that some previous experience of games, as well as some internal understanding of their chances can tell the gambler "this is not worth doing now" or, on the contrary, "hey, let's bet on this right now." The main thing is to be able to hear your inner voice, and for this you need to always remain calm.

I think that such an inner voice can often lead a player astray. For example, a player wanted to play according to a certain strategy, and then he got tired of it and the inner voice began to dictate to him what to bet on right now. And this began to turn into chaotic bets. I just wish there was no chaos, so sometimes you need to remind yourself that the inner voice should not dictate everything we need to do, because logic, limiting losses and following some strategy are better than this inner voice.

Based on your comment, I am curious as to why sometimes some people experience such chaotic situations as to their bet and some say they did get it right when they listen to their inner thoughts about the situations to bet on. I have read lots of replies here and people are admitting to being favored by their instinct to winning games while some say they do not but however the case may be, I still think there is such in existence and should we call it a predestined situation or what?

Instincts and experience goes together but if you are new into gambling trying to use instincts is a complete waste time.

Gambling does rely on instinct or I mean instinct has an important role in every decision making even though sometimes the results are disappointing, but that is what is used as a tool to make yourself sure of one of the two choices especially when we talk about the type of casino game that is really purely based on luck.
You are right about instinct being quite dependent on the experience of a gambler, but that will only be possible if we are talking about the type of skill bets such as sports that can indeed be analyzed through statistical data.
But overall one thing I will say, I think regardless of what type of game you choose, and regardless of whether you are experienced or not, in the end we must still put limits on our expectations of winning, because after all gambling can never be fully predicted and also often it makes gamblers feel very disappointed and leads a gambler to various aggressive actions, that's the point.

Usually when I start betting on a certain day , I tend to listen to my instinct at the first 2-3 picks to see if my flow is correct and my intuition is good because if I don't have a great day with my instincts , I will stop there and just place random bets or statistical bets. However , no matter "strategy" I apply , it's always in vain as in the end , I still end up losing Grin

.

But very curious to read some amazing stories where your instincts really gave you a huge win so share it please. Cool

Normally, betting based on instinct always give a good results. because listening to it will going to prevent you from often losses in gambling just like me I normally follow my instincts whenever I am playing gambling and I most confess that it have helped me in preventing to much losses in gambling. and I have come to realized that whenever I listen to my instincts in gambling I normally have winning everytime, so ever since I experience it my gambling I have decided to obey it wherever I am playing gambling.

Gambling is not just about observing or following trends, one has to use one's experience. Only those who have more experience in gambling and the ability to take risks can win and the lucky ones benefit the most in gambling. In the last few days, I had given the highest guarantee on a match and I could win but I lost there, the match was tied in the last stage and it was lost. Whenever two sides almost complete the competition, experience should be given the highest priority immediately.

Actually, in sports batting, there is no guarantee that a good team will always perform well, Or a bad team, will never perform well, there is no such thing. The performance of a team is not always the same. So during the game, you will always think that Team A will win the match, but at the last moment the game may turn around, and the match may be drawn, or Team A may even lose.
So in such a situation, the outcome is always uncertain, and that time luck plays a big role. So I think in sports batting, 50% luck and 50% experience and skill are needed. If luck is not with you, you will come and lose at the last moment.

Yes, I listen to my instinct before gambling. Sometimes I get a strong feeling about a match outcome, and when I follow it, things go well, but when I ignore it, I usually regret it a little (this is why playing responsibly is key). The challenge is that sometimes my instinct tells me not to play, not to enter a trade (crypto), or not to meet a person, but I don’t always listen... Why? Honestly, I don’t have an answer. Maybe when you’re excited, you lose your balance. For me, trusting my gut has made a big difference in my life. I try to mix my feelings with facts and experience, though I know it doesn’t always guarantee success.

Most times our instincts might want to control our emotions, and if we remember, we aren't supposed to gamble with emotions attached to it. When we add emotions to our games, we end up playing the wrong game and probably loss them. Gambling should be for fun and when you know you have good odds to get on, you go for it, not being controlled by your instincts. When we have the feeling to place a huge amount of money on a game, you may end up losing so much when that game turns out wrong, that's you being controlled by your instincts. Just follow the games the way you know

Well, I’d say yes, but only sometimes. As someone who is always into sports betting, relying solely on instincts doesn’t always work. You’ve still got to look at the data when betting. For me, odds still matter a lot in sports betting, unlike other games that are purely based on luck.

Yes, sometimes my instincts pay off, and I get a win, and I’m happy with that. But because this is gambling, I am fully aware and accept that I lose more often than I win. But I have no regret because I know this is the reality of a gambler’s life. Importantly, I genuinely enjoy it, which really matters the most.

However, the instinct that we ultimately use to determine the bet will still be determined by our luck. Sometimes it does help us win the bet, when we win we usually realize that our instincts are very right. But when in the next bet maybe our instincts no longer give us luck.
We need to realize that in the bets we make, we will not always win. Whether it is using data analysis or just our instincts. Luck does not come according to our wishes.

It is not normally. But when we are talking about instinct we have no proves of any position. It`s just like religion - you can believe or not, but you can`t give some facts of your position.
Even if we believe in instinct we get a question why so many losers in the gambling? They don`t have instinct or don`t believe it?
You give an easy way for winning - listen your instincts and win, but i don`t think it works.
